Custom photo mouse pad — the small size you give as a gift

A family photo, the household pet, a holiday memory: printed on a mouse pad, it stays under its owner's eyes every day, for years. The small custom format is made for gifts, for a second workstation, for a laptop and for a shared desk. Four sizes, from 7.1 × 8.7 to 9.8 × 13.8 in, and it is the only one of our formats where any phone photo passes without question.

Key strengths

• Four small sizes: 7.1 × 8.7 in (the classic office size), 7.9 × 9.8, 9.8 × 11.4 and 9.8 × 13.8 in for a mouse that needs a little travel (18 × 22 to 25 × 35 cm).
• Phone photos welcome: at this size, a photo from a recent smartphone is well beyond the resolution needed.
• HD printing into the fibre: the colours survive friction and a cold-water wash.
• The same glide as the big ones: micro-textured surface, compatible with every sensor — a gift that actually gets used.
• Stitched edges, non-slip base: 2 mm thick, the pad does not slide on the desk.
• Easy to give: light and flat, it fits in a rigid envelope.

How it works, on this page

1. Pick your size opposite: the price and the recommended resolution update as you go.
2. Upload your image — JPG, PNG, WebP, PDF or TIFF, 20 MB maximum. The form measures your file and tells you straight away whether it is large enough.
3. Add a note if you need to (framing, position, text), then order.

Before printing we check your file: resolution, framing, margins. If anything is wrong, we write to you. Nothing goes into production without an approved file.

Preparing your file

• Recommended resolution: 100 dpi at final size — 1,378 × 984 px for 9.8 × 13.8 in, 866 × 709 px for 7.1 × 8.7 in. A phone photo gives you twice that.
• Keep the main subject more than 0.4 in from the edge: the stitching bites slightly into the image.
• Landscape is preferable. Got a portrait photo? Tell us in the notes what has to stay visible.
• Want text added (a name, a date)? Write it in the notes and we will place it cleanly.

Image rights: we only print artwork you hold the rights to — your own photo, an original creation, your company or team logo. No game or anime characters, and no third-party brands.
